Zhen Qing Zhen Mei - a fitting song for DJG

[persephone]

First of all, hi, I've been lurking around for a bit, and now am here to contribute something back to the board.

When I came across the 9 Million Bicycles in Beijing thread, I was reminded of this song called Zhen Qing Zhen Mei (roughly translated as "True Feelings are Truly Beautiful"). It is the ending theme to a Chinese drama series released back in 2002 called She Diao Ying Xiong Zhuan (Legend of the Arching Hero) by Louis Cha, a very acclaimed writer of the wuxia, or swordfighting/kungfu/martial arts, genre.

Anyway the lyrics are as goes: (might require Chinese encoding to view)

(男) 真情真美，真如一池春水
风吹点点涟漪，感受细致入微

(女)痴心无罪，付出没有不对
算就一生一世，从此相依相随

(男)不必在乎是谁，翻转是是非非
把前尘做白纸，写上无怨无悔。

(女)我们都愿意给，只要爱的纯粹
就算有苦有累，我们一起去背

(男)爱是多么可贵，贵在有所作为
(女)爱是多么可贵，贵在有所作为
(男)只要同去同归，成败也无所谓
(女)只要同去同归，成败也无所谓。

(合)爱是多么可贵，贵在有所作为
只要同去同归，成败也无所谓
爱是多么可贵，贵在有所作为
只要同去同归，成败也无所谓。

(男)来日风雨中有没有伤悲，
无论怎么样一起来面对
百转千回，纵横南北
敞开我们的心扉

(合)爱是多么可贵，贵在有所作为
只要同去同归，成败也无所谓
爱是多么可贵，贵在有所作为
只要同去同归，成败也无所谓。

Translated (from wiki.d-addicts.com/Legend_of_Arching_Hero):

(Male) True Feelings Are Truly Beautiful, Real as a pond of spring water,
Wind blows droplets of ripple, Feeling of a delicate enclosure.

(female) Passion is not a crime, giving is not wrong;
even if it takes our whole lives, we will rely on each other

(male) It does not matter who, or whether things are right or wrong
we will make the future a blank page, and write "No regrets".

(Female) We are all willing to give, as long as our love is pure
even if it is painful or tiring, we will share the burden together.

(male) the love we have is precious, precious because of our actions
(female) the love we have is precious, precious because of our actions
(male) So long as we go and come back together, success or failure does not matter
(female) So long as we go and come back together, success or failure does not matter

(Together) the love we have is precious, precious because of our actions
So long as we go and come back together, success or failure does not matter
the love we have is precious, precious because of our actions
So long as we go and come back together, success or failure does not matter

(male)The winds and rain of upcoming days contains no sorrow,
No matter what happens we'll face it together,
Hundreds of turns and thousands of rounds, From south to north
Just simply open the door to our hearts.

(Together) the love we have is precious, precious because of our actions
So long as we go and come back together, success or failure does not matter
the love we have is precious, precious because of our actions
So long as we go and come back together, success or failure does not matter

So, what do you guys think?

aww the words sound so beautiful... ;D ^-^
...i think i've seen this show before..but im not sure. do you have any idea which actors/actresses were in it?

Singapore is currently screening Legend of the Arching Hero. The ending song is so nice!

[persephone]

It stars Li Ya Peng (husband of Faye Wong) as Guo Jing, Zhou Xun as Huang Rong, Shui Ling as Mu Nianci and Zhou Jie as Yang Kang.

It is also the adaptation so far that is the most faithful to the book. The show has the most beautiful scenery I've ever seen. For example, the part where Guo Jing is in Mongolia is filmed in Mongolia itself.

It is also known as Legend of the Condor Heroes (not to be confused with Return of the Condor Heroes, which is the second book in the trilogy).

Mm, I don't like Tian Long Ba Bu Mainly becuase I cannot stand Duan Yu's actions and how he isn't able to just make a choice between one of the girls.

You're welcome, ukfan ^_^ I wish everyone could understand the chinese version though, it beats the translation hands down.

Yes, I know! One of the many things I regret in my life is not to learn Chinese! Hey, life goes on and I do appreciate the trouble you went through to get the translation done for non-chinese speakers! ;D

Thanks and God Bless!
